gerri: and deficits far as the eye can see. clearly this is a situation that cannot continue forever. they have said let's take it to the court. what do you make of that strategy? >> is a losing strategy. there is a reason that debt ceiling raised with congress. that is a reason they have to start using the president's language and site we have to have a baland approach. if you want the debt ceiling raised come at some point we're going to have to address spending cuts. this is as good a time as any. i don't think they should go all in, draw a line in the sand and shut the government down because the public doesn't know a heck of a lot about this. they could be the recipient of the blame for this. gerri: use a dollar for dollar doesn't work. >> it will not stop the debt from growing as a percent of gdp because the gap is too large. >> i'm not saying it will balance the budget. we have to start the conversation, this is a good place to start making inroads. that is when republicans really have to draw the line in the sand. gerri

and with new york's budget deficit, it seems obvious that hydrofracking is the way to go. and, of course, governor cuomo is free to set whatever regulations he wants about that to ensure the safety of quality and other things that residents are concerned about. i would say that the project should proceed. it's brought benefit to other states. there's no reason that new york should be left behind. >> okay. right in front. wait for the mic a fun. >> you get very good examples of unsuccessful creations of new green jobs. had also looked at elimination of existing jobs like really good cost-benefit analysis done for regulations? >> the cost-benefit analysis for mercury was a travesty. if you look at the cost-benefit analysis carefully, all the benefits from reducing mercury came from getting rid of particulates and particulates were not the focus of that particular regulation. and what was interesting is the benefits focus on additional days of school. in other words, a few days of schools miss, two days of work missed because of lower levels of particulates, and particularly

if the issue is deficit reduction, getting our deficits sustainable over time, getting our debt in a sustainable place, then democrats and republicans in congress will have a partner with me. we can achieve that and we can achieve it fairly quickly. we know what the numbers are, we know what needs to be done. we know what a balanced approach would take, and we've already done probably more than half of the deficit reduction we need to stabilize the debt and the deficit. there's probably been more pain and drama in getting there than we needed. and so finishing the job shouldn't be that difficult, if everybody comes to the conversation with an open mind and if there's some things like paying our bills should not be out of bounds. i'll take one last question. >> mr. president, i would like to ask you, now that you've reached the end of your first term, starting your second, about a couple of criticisms. one that's long-standing, another more recent. the long-standing one seems to become a truism of sorts, that you and your staff are too insular, that you don't socialize enough. and the
